Yutong – Mowasalat: framework agreement for 1,002 buses

Yutong Bus signed a framework agreement with Qatar Free Zones Authority (QFZA) and Mowasalat to establish a KD factory in Qatar. Qatar 2022 will be the first World Cup event to adopt the largest number of electric buses with zero emissions, Yutong points out.

For Yutong Bus, Qatar 2022 will be yet another major international sporting event for which the company has provided service and support following the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, as well as multiple international conferences such as APEC meetings. Yutong Bus says it has sold more than 130,000 units of new energy buses to more than 350 cities as well as 24 countries and regions worldwide, including France, Great Britain, Australia, Chile and Denmark.

Yutong for Mowasalat: production in Qatar

Yutong aims at a worldwide expansion together with the increasing electric bus deployment outside China. Europe and Latin America are already in the spotlight, with batches of vehicles running (or bound to be in operation in the short-term future) in Scandinavia and France and a large e-bus fleet delivered by the Zhengzhou-based manufacturer in Santiago de Chile.

“Yutong Bus will continue to work closely with local partners to accelerate the public transportation system build-up with green energy solution,” said Shen Hui, GM of Yutong Bus in Middle East. “The KD factory for EV buses with Qatar Free Zones Authority (QFZA) and Mowasalat will realize localized design and manufacturing of EV buses in Qatar, offering more experience and technologies to aid the sustainable development of local public transportation.”
